Meticulous food hygiene standards.

Micro Markets are ideal for larger workplaces with 50+ staff, but they don’t have to be large-scale. Your Micro Market can be tailored to suit your space, requirements and workforce, providing a convenient refreshment solution that works around your business and the needs of your employees.

Choose a single fridge and a few shelves, fresh food vending machines, or add a fresh bean coffee machine. From compact refreshment stations to fully equipped canteen replacements, we’ll design a Micro Market that works for your business.

Whether you’re looking to make better use of a small breakroom or transform a larger workplace into a dedicated refreshment space, we’ll help you find the right setup. Every element can be adapted to suit your available space, giving your team easy access to food and drinks throughout the working day.

Your Micro Market is designed around your business, offering a personalised workplace refreshment solution that reflects your company identity.

With your own corporate colours and branding, you can create an inviting space that makes a lasting impression on staff, clients and visitors. It’s a great way to demonstrate your commitment to employee wellbeing while providing convenient refreshments throughout the working day. Every Micro Market is unique, giving you a solution that’s truly your own.

Once we understand your requirements, our IT team will create an initial mock-up showing exactly how your Micro Market could look within your workplace.

You’ll have the opportunity to review the proposed layout, explore the design and request any changes before moving forward. This collaborative approach allows us to create a refreshment space that meets your expectations, complements your workplace and delivers the facilities your team needs.

Your design. Your Micro Market!

Hygiene is important, which is why we maintain stringent food safety standards across every Micro Market.

Our hygiene protocols go beyond the requirements of a 5-star food hygiene rating, with freshly prepared items temperature-checked at every stage of the process. Our refrigerated units also feature automatic locking systems that activate if temperatures rise above safe levels. These measures help protect food quality and safety, giving your business and employees confidence in their workplace refreshments.

Micro Market FAQs

A micro market is a self-service retail area within your workplace, stocked with a selection of snacks, drinks and refreshments for employees to purchase whenever they need them. Unlike traditional vending machines, micro markets give employees the freedom to browse a wider range of products, choose what they want and pay using a variety of convenient payment methods. They can be accessed throughout the day, making it easy for employees to grab something without needing to leave the workplace.

Our team takes care of the day-to-day management of your micro market, including keeping it stocked, clean and fully operational, so your employees can enjoy a reliable and convenient service.

Micro markets are generally best suited to larger workplaces with 100 or more employees on site. You’ll also need suitable wall space or a dedicated break room where the market can be installed.

Micro markets can be customised to suit the preferences of your employees and the needs of your workplace. From everyday snacks and treats to healthier options, you can choose from a broad selection of products to create a range that works for your team.

Depending on your requirements, your micro market can include fresh food, hot and cold snacks, chilled drinks and a variety of other refreshments. The selection can also be adapted over time based on what your employees enjoy most, helping you create a convenient service that is relevant to your workforce.

Micro markets can be tailored to suit the space available within your workplace, so you do not necessarily need a large break-out area or dedicated retail space. A suitable wall, staff kitchen or break room can provide enough room for a compact micro market designed around your environment.

For smaller workplaces, the available space and number of employees on site will need to be considered to determine whether a micro market is the right solution. Our team can help you assess your space and requirements and recommend an option that works for your workplace.

Yes. A micro market can include a selection of fresh food alongside snacks, cold drinks and other refreshments. Depending on your requirements, you can also incorporate a commercial coffee facility, including a fresh bean coffee machine, to create a more complete workplace refreshment solution.

Micro markets are designed to provide access to workplace refreshments throughout the day, without the opening and closing times associated with a staffed canteen. This makes them particularly useful for businesses with shift workers, extended operating hours or flexible working patterns.

There is no single size requirement for a micro market because the setup can be designed around the space available. A smaller market could include a single fridge and shelving, while larger spaces can accommodate a more extensive refreshment area with additional facilities. The layout can be planned around your workplace and the facilities you want to provide.

A micro market can provide an alternative to a traditional workplace canteen, particularly for businesses looking for a self-service refreshment solution without staffed catering. The size and facilities can be tailored to your requirements, from a simple selection of food and drinks through to a larger setup designed to provide a more comprehensive workplace catering solution.
